Thank you for purchasing the Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere sample library! This
electric guitar sample library features over 5.3 gigabytes (compressed to 2 GB using the lossless
NCW audio format) of 24-bit samples, powered by KONTAKTs extensive scripting engine.
Emulating a guitar is a complex task because there are so many articulations and techniques to
cover when it comes to lead guitar playing, strumming, or chordal picking patterns. In addition
to the wide collection of sampled articulations, we also used Kontakt's scripting to make certain
techniques more dynamic. For example, we used a combinations of samples and scripting to
generate slides that can be played between notes at any speed. Similarly, rather that recording
samples of strummed chords, we included a powerful strumming pattern system that generates
realistic strummed chords from individual samples.
Many aspects are also physically modeled. This includes tonal modeling, incorporated in the
pick position control, since the location of where the string is picked affects the timbre and
attack of the guitar's tone. We also used modeled the motion of the guitar pick to capture
factors such as how the picking direction and string skipping changes pick noises. And speaking
of pick noises, the strumming engine uses different pick noises because the strings are attacked
in a different way when strumming.
Legato is an important element in guitar playing, whether it's playing slides or simply fretting a
different note without plucking it, achieving what are known as hammer-ons and pull-offs--the
first being to an upward legato interval and the latter referring to a downward interval.
Another important factor that we included is string resonance. Sometimes open strings or their
harmonics will resonate with the currently ringing note. This resonance adds additional depth
and nuance to the tone of the guitar. Of course, as with many of the features in Stratosphere,
the string resonance is adjustable.
Lastly, Stratosphere uses custom LFO shapes to produce authentic guitar vibrato. We also
included several types of vibrato, which specialize in different styles of music. The speed and
depth of the vibrato are both adjustable, giving you a lot of options when it comes to fine
tuning the vibrato to suit your guitar track.

At its core, Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere has over 10,000 samples, recorded in 24-bit
at 48khz. You get three dynamics, downstroke and upstroke pick directions (when applicable),
with 2 round robin each. Each string was recorded individually.
Because effects are a big part of guitar playing, Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere comes
with a robust guitar effects engine. That way it isn't reliant on an external guitar effects plugin,
although you have the option to bypass Stratosphere's own effects to use your own plugins.
The built-in effect system includes a vast collection of over $8,000 of guitar pedals, modeled
using convolution impulses and scripting. Additionally, you have selectable guitar cab sizes with
several options for microphones and mic placement. In total, you have a complete guitar
effects suite at your fingertips without external guitar effect processors necessary to get
amazing-sounding tones.
In terms of articulations, Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere includes sustains, half palm
mutes, full palm mutes, mutes, squeals, tapping, natural harmonics, plus special effects such as
chugs, scratches, string slaps, and much more. There are also MIDI articulations for instant
techniques such as grace notes, buzz trills, slides (velocity-based and tempo-synced), octaves,
and powerchords.
All these articulations are available in our custom mapping system, which allows you to set how
you want the different playing techniques to be triggered. For example, you can assign
articulations to velocity ranges, MIDI CCs, or even custom latching and non-latching
keyswitches. There's also a dynamic memory option--when enabled, unused articulations will
be automatically unloaded from memory, keeping the library as efficient and compact memorywise as possible.

By emphasizing realism and playability, we want playing Evolution Electric Guitar Stratosphere to give you the same excitement and inspiration as playing a real electric guitar.
We at Orange Tree Samples are proud of the results, and hope you enjoy this extensive electric
guitar library!

The first thing you need to do when installing Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere is to
extract the RAR files that you downloaded, which can be done using 7-Zip (Windows), or
UnRarX (Mac). The main thing you need to bear in mind when extracting the RAR files is that all
the files need to ultimately extract into the same "Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere"
folder.
Begin with extracting the "Stratosphere-Engine.rar" file, which includes all the core files
necessary to play Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere, including the main patch to load in
KONTAKT, documentation, and the preset files.
Next, extract the "Stratosphere-Samples.part1.rar" file. You only need to extract this first part
and none of the other parts, because the RAR extraction software will automatically draw the
files from these other RARs in the process. In the event that the files get extracted into a
different folder (with an alternate name, with a "1" at the end, for instance), just move the
"Samples" subfolder back into the main "Evolution Electric Guitar - Stratosphere" folder.
After extracting the RAR files by following the above instructions, your installation is now
complete!
After launching KONTAKT in standalone or as a plugin in your DAW, click the "Files" dropdown
at the top of KONTAKT's interface, and click "Load...". Navigate to the "Evolution Electric Guitar
- Stratosphere" folder that was created during the extraction of the library, and open the "EEG
Stratosphere.nki" file.
TIP: If the patch doesn't load, displaying an error, please ensure that you have the very latest
version of KONTAKT. Updating KONTAKT is a quick and easy process using the Native
Instruments Service Center.
User's Guide

As your collection of KONTAKT libraries expands, it's important to keep them organized. For
example, keep them all within a main "KONTAKT Sample Libraries" folder rather than scattered
around your hard drive. Backing up the installation files for your sample libraries is also a good
idea.
The next step in organizing your sample libraries is in KONTAKT itself. One of the benefits of
storing your sample libraries all in the same place is that it makes finding them faster when
manually loading them. For KONTAKT Player instruments, there's the library tab, which is also a
useful shortcut to access instruments, but unfortunately is limited to only the libraries that
license the KONTAKT Player. One of the best library organization methods that KONTAKT
includes is the Quick Load menu. This allows you to sort shortcuts to your libraries in any
folder/subfolder format you wish, and can be quickly accessed with a single right-click in any
empty area of the multi-rack (the large portion of KONTAKT's interface that displays the loaded
instruments).
User's Guide
Page 9 of 32
At the top of the interface, you'll see five sections labeled "Play", "Strum", "Chords", "Tone",
and "Setup". These buttons navigate to each of the sections of the interface. The controls and
interfaces are organized into these sections to make it faster to get to the options you're
looking for.
In the "Play" section, you have controls to customize how you want to trigger the included
articulations. For example, you can set articulations to velocity ranges, latching and nonlatching keyswitches, MIDI CCs, and more.
The "Strum" section has a built-in strumming pattern editor to make it convenient to create and
play realistic strumming patterns right inside the sample library.
The "Chords" section lets you how the chords are detected. On option is to make the exact
notes you hold to get strummed. There's also an automatic mode, which takes the chord that
you have held and translates it into a real guitar voicing taking into consideration the inversion
of the chord. It also uses the current fretting position to figure out whether the chord should be
voiced at the base of the fretboard or high up on the neck. The last chord option gives you a
custom chord editor, in case you have very specific chord voicings you want to use.
The guitar fretboard view lets you see the notes as they're played. That way you can see which
strings are getting played and where on the neck they are. It also helps visualize how elements
like the fretting position, capo, and tuning of the guitar affect where notes are played on the
fretboard.
At the bottom of the interface are all the available controls for the section of the interface
you're currently viewing.
User's Guide
Page 10 of 32
This is a scrollable list of articulations available in the Stratosphere sample library. You can
specify the condition you want to trigger the articulation, such as a velocity range, sustain
pedal, MIDI continuous controller, or latching and non-latching keyswitches. If you use a
condition such as the velocity range, you can set the exact range of values necessary to trigger
the articulation.
If you have the articulations mapped in a way where there's overlap, only one articulation will
get played. Which articulation gets chosen is based on the condition and its position on the
articulation list. Velocity ranges have the lowest priority, followed by MIDI controllers, sustain
pedal, non-latching keyswitches, and finally latching keyswitches with the highest priority.
Beyond that, the lower on the list the articulation is, the greater priority it has.
In other words, if you set the full palm mute articulation to a keyswitch, and the half palm
mute articulation to a low velocity range, playing a note at a low velocity, yet holding down the
keyswitch will trigger the full palm mute articulation rather than the half palm mute
articulation. Although the conditions are met for both articulations, the instrument chooses the
full palm mute articulation because it has a higher priority, since keyswitches take priority over
velocity ranges.
User's Guide
Page 11 of 32
The Evolution guitar engine has a sophisticated built-in strumming pattern editor. There are six
available slots for strum patterns within a single instance of the instrument.
You can select the slot to edit using these six buttons. Each strumming pattern slot has a
keyswitch that it's assigned to--by default these are set to C0 through F0, although you can click
on the value to enable a MIDI learn mode, and after pressing the new key on your keyboard the
pattern will be mapped to that key instead.
Length
The length in measures of the strumming pattern.
Beats
The number of beats in a measure, allowing you to create patterns in a variety of
meters.
Division
How many units each beat is divided into in the strumming pattern.
Swing
The amount of swing applied to the strumming pattern. At 0%, the rhythm is played
evenly, while at 100% the strumming pattern uses the maximum amount of swing
available.
User's Guide
Page 12 of 32
Clicking on the small circles at the top of the strumming pattern display brings up a dropdown
menu with a list of available articulations to use for the strum. You can also add oneshot effects
such as string slaps to the pattern here.
Bear in mind that if there is no articulation selected for the particular strum, the previous strum
will continue to ring. If you wish to mute the strum, use the "rest" articulation. You can also use
oneshot effects, such as a string slap effect to mute the currently playing notes.
User's Guide
Page 13 of 32
This percentage controls how loud the strum is played, relative to the velocity that the strum
pattern key is held.
The strum graphic has handles on the top and bottom that you can drag vertically to select
which strings get strummed. The strum begins at the small circle, and plays up to the pick
graphic. The arrow icon inside the pick direction clarifies the direction of the strum.
If you want to flip the strum direction, you can drag the top handle beneath the bottom handle,
and the direction will be inverted. You can also set the top and bottom handles to the same
string to have the pattern pluck a single note.
The handle in the middle of the strum graphic can be dragged vertically to adjust the speed of
the strum. The strums are played at the beginning of their respective rhythmic divisions, so
using slower strums can result in a delay in the perceived rhythm. However, if you need a strum
to anticipate the rhythm, this can be achieved by anticipating the beat with a very slow strum,
and use a single note strum on the beat. This technique can be seen in the "Spicy Stuff" factory
strum pattern, for example.
User's Guide
Page 14 of 32
With the chord mode disabled, the strum downstroke and upstroke keys are still available, but
as keys to repeat the last played note or chord. This can be a useful performance aid when
playing repeated notes (like tremolo or repeating powerchords), by alternating between playing
notes in the main playing range and playing the downstroke/upstroke keys.
In this chord mode, the main playing range is muted, allowing you to hold a note or chord and
use the strum downstroke and upstroke keys to strum the exact notes you have held. This
mode is great if you want to strum very specific chords and chords that have fewer notes in
them.
This chord mode also mutes the main playing range, but translates the held notes into a real
guitar voicing that takes the fretting position, capo setting, guitar alternate tuning into
consideration when selecting a guitar voicing. The inversion of the chord you hold on the
keyboard makes a difference in the resulting guitar voicing.
User's Guide
Page 15 of 32
In this chord mode, the main playing range is muted. However, it lets you specify which notes
and chords translate into custom voicings. For example, you could make it so that holding a
single "C" key will translate into a full custom C major chord voicing, or literally any other
voicing you want. The chord recognition also works with very complex chords as well, so you
can create a simple or complicated custom chord system. The chords are automatically sorted
on the list of custom chords to keep them organized by root and chord type.
Learn New Chord

After pressing this button, you can play a note or chord on your keyboard, and that
exact note or notes will be included as a custom chord to trigger a custom guitar voicing
that you can specify using the string fret value controls.
String Fret Values
You can use these controls to create your own chord voicing. The resulting note names
are displayed below as well as displayed on the main fretboard graphic.

Drive
The amount of distortion to apply to the signal.
Boost
The saturation of the guitar tone to add to the distortion.
Damping
Controls the damping of high frequency distortion content, allowing you to achieve a
bright distortion effect or a smooth one.
Tremolo Pedal
We've included several famous types of tremolo, from old 50s and 60s tube tremolos to
photocell tremolos and even harmonic tremolo.
Depth
Sets the depth of the tremolo effect.
Speed
Sets the speed of the tremolo effect.
User's Guide
Page 17 of 32
Amount
A basic volume effect that can be automated to a MIDI CC for emulating volume pedal
swells.
Wah Pedal
Wah pedals have a wide variety of tones, so we included many options for different
pedals.
Low
Sets the low limit for the wah effect.
High
Sets the high limit for the wah effect. If you automate both the low and high knobs to
the same MIDI controller, it switches to a manual mode, where you can control the
position of the wah pedal yourself using a MIDI CC.
Speed
Sets the speed of the wah effect oscillation, which uses a custom LFO curve for
increased realism.
Reverb Pedal
We've included a plethora of iconic reverb pedals to select between. When applicable,
we included several options per pedal for ones that have several modes.
User's Guide
Page 18 of 32
Volume
Controls the overall volume of the reverb signal.
Size
Adjusts the length of the reverb tail. Certain pedals naturally have longer decays than
others, so some pedals are more suitable for different lengths of reverb.
Body
Attenuates the low/mid frequencies of the reverb.
Top
Attenuates the high frequencies of the reverb.
Frequency
Sets the frequency of the EQ band.
Width
Sets the range of frequencies affected in the EQ band.
Gain
Sets the gain amount of the EQ band, allowing you to attenuate or boost frequencies.
Threshold
Sets the volume threshold necessary to trigger the compressor.
Ratio
The rate at which the volume is compressed above the threshold value.
Attack
The speed at which the compressor starts to affect the signal. Lower attack values allow
the compressor to take immediate effect, while using higher attack values allow you to
preserve the original transient, which in most cases makes it more pronounced.
User's Guide
Page 19 of 32
Release
The "cooldown" time after the signal passes below the compressor's threshold volume
to allow the volume to return to its original value.
Gain
The makeup gain for the compressor. Highly compressed tones usually need the volume
boosted to make up for the loss of volume. You can also use this control to either underpower or overdrive the amp modeling for additional control over the level of distortion
in the guitar tone.
Mix
The wet/dry balance for the chorus effect.
Depth
Controls the depth of the chorus effect.
Speed
Controls the speed of the chorus LFO.
Phase
You can adjust the difference in phase between the left and right audio channels using
this knob, which essentially controls the stereo width of the chorus effect.
Mix
The wet/dry balance for the flanger effect.
Depth
Controls the depth of the flanger effect.
Speed
Controls the speed of the flanger LFO.
User's Guide
Page 20 of 32
Phase
You can adjust the difference in phase between the left and right audio channels using
this knob, which essentially controls the stereo width of the flanger effect.
Color
Essentially controls the range in which the flanger operates.
Feedback
Adjusts the amount of signal that's fed back into the flanger for a more pronounced
effect.
Volume
Sets the overall volume level of the reverb rack effect.
Delay
The reverb signal can be delayed to simulate a larger environment, where the sound is
audibly delayed.
Size
Controls the length of the reverb effect.
Color
Sets the general tone of the reverb from a bright to dark sound.
Damp
You can use this control to set how much the high frequencies are dampened in the
reverb.
Stereo
Controls the stereo width of the reverb effect.
User's Guide
Page 21 of 32
Volume
Sets the volume of the delay effect.
Time
Sets the time of the delay effect. You can tempo-sync this value using the "sync" button
described below.
Pan
Alters the panning of the delayed signal.
Damp
Dampens the high frequencies of the delayed signal.
Feed
The delayed signal can be fed back into the delay effect for additional delay lines. Since
this also affects the volume of the delayed signal, you can balance it with the "volume"
knob in the delay effect. For example, if you only want a single slapback delay, you'll find
that using a very low feedback value requires you to increase the overall volume of the
delay.
Sync
When enabled, this switches the delay's time knob to tempo relative values instead of
absolute ones. That way you can sync the delay time to your song's tempo.
Amp Type
Selects between a few amp models that specialize in different styles of guitar tones.
Amp Gain
Adjusts the amount of gain to overdrive the guitar amp for more distortion.
Amp Output Volume
Controls the master volume of the guitar signal. Usually the more effects that add
User's Guide

volume to the guitar signal, from distortion to EQ and reverb, you'll need to reduce the
output volume to prevent clipping.
Cab Type
Selects the guitar cabinet model from a list of available cabs.
Cab Mic
We've included several types of mics that you can choose between, each with their own
tonal characteristics.
Mic Position
While not exhaustive by any means, we sampled each cabinet and mic combination in a
few common mic placements for further tonal control.
Mix
Adjusts the mix between the miced cab tone and the direct output from the guitar amp,
which is especially useful for clean tones.
Spring Reverb
Controls the amount of spring reverb from the guitar amp's reverb pan enclosure.
Room
Adds an additional convolution impulse to add room ambience to the signal for a
thicker, more resonant guitar tone.
User's Guide
Page 23 of 32
This slider allows you to select the guitar pickup to use for a variety of tonal options.
Multitracking is where the guitar audio track is recorded several times and layered together,
usually panned separate directions for a wide stereo field. This setting automates this
technique, allowing you to create double tracked, triple tracked, and even quadruple tracked
guitar parts all within a single instance of the Evolution guitar library.
This sets how much the timing of notes and their releases are randomized.
Although subtle, you can select the pick style here. Alternate picking strictly alternates between
downstroke and upstroke pick directions. However, it includes a release gate time that resets
the pick direction to a downstroke. Economy picking, which is also known as conservative
picking and sweep picking, preserves the pick direction to make the motion more efficient
depending on which strings you play after one another. There are also 8th note and 16th note
options, which alternate the pick direction based on the timing of the note within the beat to
ensure that downbeats are played with a downstroke and upbeats with upstrokes. Finally,
there are "downstroke only" and "upstroke only" options to restrict the pick direction to single
directions.
The position of the pick relative to the string is simulated using our proprietary physical
modeling technology. Positioning the pick closer to the bridge gives you a brighter tone with
plenty of twang, while playing closer to the neck has a deep, hollow tone.
User's Guide
Page 24 of 32
When the pick modeling option is enabled, this allows you to set the position of the pick
relative to the string.
Controls the amount of pick noise. Because the pick noises precede the sustain tone, they delay
the perceived transients of the notes, so lowering the pick noise amount is important for guitar
tracks that need very precise rhythm. This also takes the pick style into consideration, as well as
which string was previously played in order to determine the volume and length of pick noise.
Controls the volume of the release samples. While release samples add a lot of realism to the
sound of the guitar, there are situations where you need to lower their volume for a guitar
track that has fewer extraneous noises.
Sets the fretting position. Depending on your guitar track, different settings are suitable. For
example, a lot of lead guitar playing is played higher up on the guitar's fretboard, which equates
to a higher fretting position, whereas strumming tends to be played closer to the open strings-a lower fretting position. It can also serve as a tonal choice, since the lower fretting position has
a brighter, more complex tone, whereas the higher fretting position has a smoother, warmer
tone.
This makes the velocity layers crossfade between each other rather than strictly switching
between each other at set velocity ranges.
User's Guide

Biases the dynamics towards either the low or high velocities. At its default state, the dynamics
have a linear response.
Sets the minimum limit of the dynamics.
Sets the maximum limit of the dynamics, essentially setting a cap on the loudest dynamic that
can be played.
Uses the MIDI channel number to dictate the string selection, assigning channel 1 to the high E
string, channel 2 to the B string, and so forth.
A capo is a device that guitarists use to transpose standard guitar chord voicings to higher keys,
primarily chords that are reliant on open strings. The Evolution guitar engine's automatic chord
voicings adjust to compensate for the capo position.
Alters the tuning of the guitar between several popular alternate guitar tunings. The strumming
downstroke and upstroke keyswitches are automatically lowered to prevent overlap with the
playable range.

Sets the threshold interval for triggering a legato articulation above the current note.
Sets the threshold interval for triggering a legato articulation below the current note.
Sets the bend mode that determines which notes are affected by the pitch wheel.
Allows you to either exclude or include the selected bend mode. For example, if you exclude the
highest note played, all other notes apart from the highest note are affected by the pitch
wheel. However, if you include the highest note played, only the highest note will be affected
by the pitch wheel.
Sets the range that notes can bend upward.
Sets the range that notes can bend downward--using large intervals are useful for simulating a
whammy bar while still preserving the smaller interval of the upward bend for natural string
bends.
Sets the amount of string resonance added into the guitar tone.

Selects the MIDI CC used to control the vibrato amount. If your MIDI keyboard supports
aftertouch, you can also set this to aftertouch.
Sets the LFO curve of the vibrato between several custom curves that are modeled after
different styles of guitar playing.
Controls the width of the vibrato from very narrow vibrato to wide vibrato.
Sets the speed of the vibrato LFO.
Automatic fret noises can be played after releasing notes while playing outside the general
fretting position area. You can disable these noises entirely by setting the control to its
minimum value.
Samples can be dynamically loaded and unloaded from memory depending on whether they're
used in the current mapping and strumming patterns. While this can save you a considerable
amount of memory, dynamically loading and unloading samples can cause audio artifacts and
slows down the speed that tone and strumming presets are loaded. Disabling the dynamic
memory setting is especially suitable for live playing where you don't want samples to be
loading in the background when switching patches. It also offers a smoother experience when
auditioning factory presets.
User's Guide
Page 28 of 32
When this option is enabled, changing presets will not affect the current mapping. You can still
edit the mapping as usual, but loading external presets or factory presets will not overwrite
your mapping. This is useful if you are using a specific mapping--for example, utilizing custom
keyswitches--but still want to audition other presets without affecting the mapping.
You can introduce random variation in strumming patterns by increasing the strumming
humanization setting. The humanization affects the velocity, strum speed, and strings that are
strummed. That way each time the pattern repeat, it can have slight, random variation.
You can remap the strum downstroke key here. When set to "auto", the key is placed
immediately below the main playing range. Its exact mapping depends on if the strum key
upstroke and keyswitch unlatch keyswitches are also set to "auto" or not.
You can remap the strum upstroke key here. When set to "auto", this key is mapped
immediately below the main playing range.
While the keyswitch unlatch key is automatically mapped directly below the main playing range
by default, you can override this and map it to any key you want. For example, you could map it
nearby other latching keyswitches for convenience. Bear in mind that the keyswitch unlatch key
only appears on your mapping if you actually have articulations mapped to latching
keyswitches.
Usually the strum patterns get played the moment you press their associated pattern keys.
However, if your timing is slightly off from the metronome, this will impact the timing of every
strum in the pattern. By enabling the option to quantize the strum pattern keys, you can ensure
that the strumming pattern will start right on the beat. Specifically, the pattern key gets
quantized to the nearest quarter note in the measure.
